Colon being out four to six weeks, as the source confirmed to Cosentino, means he won’t be able to participate in any of the Jets’ organized team activities, or in next month’s mandatory mini camp. This will prevent him from working alongside the Jets’ new right tackle, Breno Giacomini, whom they signed from Seattle to replace Austin Howard, a free agency departure.

Second-year pro Oday Aboushi, who worked primarily at tackle last year while not appearing in any games, has taken the first-team snaps at right guard. The move of Aboushi from tackle to guard was planned “even before Willie tweaked his knee” while working out, Mornhinweg said.

“He’s done outstanding inside,” Mornhinweg said of Aboushi.

Mornhinweg also praised another second-year guard, Will Campbell, who, like Aboushi, essentially redshirted last season. Campbell has been wearing a cast on his wrist recently.

“He’s coming off of a minor surgery, so he should be with us here pretty quick as well,” Mornhinweg said of Campbell. “We feel real good about our offensive line. That was one thing last year that we could hang our hat on just a little bit. We’re excited about the young guys. We’ve got an opportunity to become one of the better offensive lines in the league."

They were not in that group last season, according to Pro Football Focus, which rated the Jets No. 21 in the NFL in pass blocking and No. 31 in run blocking.
